Abstract

: Innovation is a complex phenomenon involving multiple individual and external contexts. Experimenting with research designs that could claim some degree of generalisability is challenging, however, progress even in research niches can contribute to a more structured and more precisely measured understanding of the innovation process. This article focuses on the measurement of entrepreneurial innovation, using a novel questionnaire design. Responses were collected from two Hungarian universities (147 and 127 responses, respectively) and analysed using Structural Equation Modelling. The results confirm that innovation success is shaped by macro-level factors, which have an influence on risk perception through locus of control. The main contribution of the paper is methodological, demonstrating (1) the possibility of using questionnaire survey for analysing multiple levels if the narrative is under control, (2) the possibility to structure and measure individual and higher level contextual impacts on innovation
